I was thinking that the roads would be good on the Totem route, but I was wrong. Super icy in stretches and almost had to walk or shuffle feet. There were some longer stretches where I could open it up a bit. It was nice to just be outside though.
2/21

Worked at Skinny mini today until 5, so I just decided to swing off at the AK club and run an easy 7 miles at recovery pace. Felt good.

Kept it easy at the AK club today. After yesterday's run I knew I needed to recover, but I was suprised my body (legs) didn't feel all beat up today.
2/14
16 miles
Ran with Jerry Ross, Jim McDonugh, and Jeff Young this morning. I was planning on just 10-12, but felt like helping Jeff with his workout so he didn't have to do it solo. First hour was easy (7:00-7:10 pace) then we did 15 min of 6:40 pace, then 20 min. of 6:30 pace and that's when I had enough and backed off and kind of death marched the last mile. Longest run since my marathon in October. Ran a little harder then I was prepared for (no gu or water), but I need to start somewhere.
2/13
7 miles
I ate way too much at Bears Tooth last night and kind of felt heavy running. Started at 7:30 pace and progressed down to 6:15 pace before school. Looking forward to a 3 day weekend and some runs outside.

Both runs were at an easy recovery pace. Felt pretty good. I just want to keep things easy for another week before I officially start training.
